Best time to post on LinkedIn

Start a LinkedIn posting experiment with a suggested weekly schedule. Choose a goal and audience, then compare the proposed windows with your own account results.

How to test LinkedIn posting windows

LinkedIn posts are usually read on weekdays, in the timezone where the buyers or candidates work. A late-night slot can look empty for a national professional audience even if it is a fine time for another network.

This page helps you draft the test. It does not connect to LinkedIn analytics. PostTempo's public publishing claim does not include treating LinkedIn video as generally available, so run the timing test with the text or image format you can actually post.

Pick Tuesday and Wednesday mornings in the audience's work timezone.
Keep the topic type stable: one hiring post is not comparable to one product post.
Judge comments from the people you meant to reach, not impressions alone.

How to use your suggested posting times

The free planner uses hand-authored platform timing profiles and rules. Your selected audience, goal, content, and posting frequency adjust the recommendations. It does not read your account analytics, analyze billions of live engagements, or guarantee reach.

Select the networks you use and a posting frequency you can maintain.
Review each suggested window against your audience's timezone and your team's availability.
Run a consistent posting experiment, recording format, topic, time, and outcome.
Use your own account results to adjust the next schedule. Timing is one input alongside content quality and audience fit.
